California Governor Gavin Newsom is now accusing President Trump of trying to ‘stoke’ a civil war. Democrats sure are good at projection, aren’t they?
All Trump is trying to do is clean up the mess created by Joe Biden’s open border and deport the millions of people who illegally entered the country. Trump is following United States immigration laws.
What is Gavin Newsom’s party doing? They’re rioting in the streets, harassing and attacking ICE agents, and threatening people. Who is really trying to stoke a civil war? It’s the left, and Newsom knows it.

Gov. Newsom: Donald Trump Wants ‘Civil War’ for ‘White Supremacy’
President Donald Trump and the Department of Homeland Security are trying to start a civil war for “white supremacy,” California Gov. Gavin Newsom told reporters as Democrats escalate their rhetoric to prevent the enforcement of federal law in Democrat-controlled Minnesota.
“He’s trying to stoke a Civil War in this country,” he said, adding:
It’s a disgrace what he’s doing in Minneapolis. It’s a disgrace what his DHS [Department of Homeland Security] is putting out. Very intentionally stoking tensions. White supremacy being promoted. None of this is normal and it cannot be normalized.
Roughly 700,000 Americans — and the sitting President — were killed in the U.S. Civil War. That is the equivalent of six million dead in the United States’ 2026 population of roughly 320 million.
Newsome is already running for the Democrats’ 2028 presidential nomination and is trying to build support among the party’s chaotic array of diverse, pro-migration activists. Newsom did not explain why the enforcement of the nation’s border laws encourages “white supremacy.”

This is all about Gavin Newsom’s political ambitions. He is running for president in 2028 and everyone knows it. He has to get out in front of this and signal to the left that he is on their side, but as is typical with Newsom, it comes off as so slimy and inauthentic.
